The UK’s most successful dance group will bring their new concept tour SOUL to 31 towns and cities, performing over 60 dates between February and May 2026, including performances at Milton Keynes Theatre in February 2026 as part of the Diversity UK tour 2026.
The Diversity SOUL tour 2026 is based around the technological advancements of artificial intelligence, what the future holds, and what it truly means to be human within the digital age. With matinee and evening shows across the spring half-term and Easter holidays, there are plenty of opportunities for all the family to join in with the excitement.
Tickets will be available from Friday, 28 February at 9.30am by visiting Milton Keynes Theatre’s website at ATGTICKETS.COM/MiltonKeynes. Don’t miss your chance to experience Diversity’s SOUL tour 2026 live.
The future is now. Humans have become plugged in and completely connected to a world full of Artificial Intelligence – a world in which it is hard to distinguish reality from fiction. AI has become so advanced it’s considered a life form of its very own.
Is this the next stage in our evolution? What exactly have we created? What makes us human?
…SOUL.
Diversity rose to stardom after winning the third series of Britain’s Got Talent in 2009. Since then, the dynamic dance group has gone on to sell out multiple tours across the UK and Ireland, including the highly anticipated Diversity UK tour 2026, perform to the masses with countless television and live shows, receive the award for Virgin Media’s ‘Must See Moment of 2020’ at the British Academy Television Awards, and launch Diversity Studio in 2023 in their native Essex.
The studio offers in-person and live-streamed dance classes to all age groups, taught by core members of Diversity.
Diversity have once again partnered with anti-poverty charity The Trussell Trust, which works to provide emergency food and support to those locked in poverty while campaigning for change to end the need for food banks in the UK. Upon ticket purchase, fans can opt-in to add a £1 donation to the charity per transaction. For more information, visit www.trusselltrust.org.
The members of Diversity continue to excel in their careers outside the dance group as well.
In 2023, Ashley Banjo was awarded an MBE for his commitment and service to dance. Alongside his work choreographing and performing with Diversity, Ashley has devoted his time to teaching dance to communities, appearing as a judge on ITV’s Dancing on Ice, and hosting the BAFTA-nominated The Real Full Monty, as well as International Emmy Award, Broadcast Award, and Royal Television Society Award-winning The Real Full Monty: Ladies Night. Ashley also had the honour of co-presenting the Pride of Britain Awards alongside Carol Vorderman.
Jordan Banjo has also hosted a variety of TV shows, including BBC One’s primetime and BAFTA-nominated The Greatest Dancer. Meanwhile, Jordan and Diversity’s Perri Kiely hold a prestigious slot on breakfast radio, presenting KISS Breakfast every weekday.

Each performance will showcase cutting-edge choreography, unique storytelling, and an electrifying atmosphere.
